Dumb question but do you usually reblog asks game answers you send? Because I answered your ask for one of them (the book themed one) and I don’t know if you saw it or not. It’s cool if you did see and just didn’t reblog it, but I wanted to make sure? Sorry if this is presumptuous.
Not a dumb or presumptuous question at all! I tend to be very inconsistent with my responses. Sometimes I'll reblog them, but usually if they're a mutual I'm more familiar with, but even then that's only on occasion. Otherwise I will try to reply to them--but again, also inconsistent!
I'm quite forgetful when it comes to responding to things, so I truly mean nothing by it. I've been tagged in several tag game-like things over the past few weeks that I keep forgetting to go through, for example, and there are a handful of DMs I also keep forgetting to respond to.
I promise I was not trying to dismiss whatever you said. In all likelyhood, I read it when I got the notif, went "I should respond to this in a minute!" and then i got enough notes between reading it, setting my phone down, and coming back I couldn't see the notif anymore and forgot. it happens a lot.
I'm working to be better with it, but it's an ongoing process. If you'd like and are comfortable, tag me in the post! Then I can find it and reply! but I'd probably reply tomorrow, as I'm about to go to bed

Hi, just saying, DMs exist for a reason, and if you're going to shit on fics/writers on tumblr dot com where they could VERY easily see it, maybe just don't? Have a shred of empathy and just imagine what it might feel like if you came across someone talking about you and something you were proud of one day. And no, obviously I'm not talking about fics that are racist. I'm talking about ones that just aren't to your taste. Nobody's saying you have to like them. Nobody's saying you have to read them. Just don't be a fucking dick about them in public.

okay, bc i have seen this argument alot now (and it also seems to be the view point of aonuma himself..) is that "zelda cant do everything link does bc whats the point then"
and i take personal offense on that bc its a stupid argument (in. my. very. personal. opinion.- not judging people for liking it. its a ME thing)
whats the point? its that its her.
its still a different character, different in story, background, personality, but i WANT to play zelda and she can do everything link does, why does she have to be so restricted and be bend over backwards to find some new way to make her 'useful' when link gets to do basically everything no questions asked (the only thing thats hers is like .. sealing power and sacrificial maiden, which i find a little underwhelming to say the least), if theres no point to it why are there always modders that model swap link with someone else, and in that case it has even less impact bc its an artificial model swap with no changes to the story (which can and should still be different when its the vanilla game with a different protagonist... its still a different character), clearly theres joy in just the model being a different one- and that isnt even to mention the story possibilities, since, again, its stil a different character
if we ever (never ... i know who we are talking about here) get to play as ganondorf i want to him to be just as versatile and active as link is, if we got a point and click adventure game for him instead bc 'whats the point' id be disappointed too- you can find any sort of excuse/explanation for zelda to be singled out but the fact remains it tracks with how female characters are often treated, and that hits a very sore spot for me
i guess i am unfortunately one of those annoying people that want to see female characters be treated exactly the same as male characters, possibly bc i am myself afab but identify as agender and have a deeply personal dislike for anything 'traditional' feminine bc i cannot and never will be able to truly live as myself in real life, it influences all of my work, my work is as just as much as my opinion on this, very personal
and in line with my point about modding, i see theres joy in just beign able to play as her even if its like this, i get that, i also get it for the creative aspect (though that mechanic worries me even more for the future bc it really seems to be the path now that -freedom = good, linear anything = bad-) it is a different idea and its not like i cant see that value-
im not trying be "right" either, just bc i have that opinion doesnt mean i need everyone to agree, its a very personal thing, if you like it good for you! not for me though, and i think both of that is equally valid
i just personally wish she was allowed to be just like link, fight just like him but be different bc its still her and not him in the end- to be physically/playstyle like jsut like him, but you know ... as her, i dont think shed stop being zelda if she could wield a sword just like him
i dont really know how to get my point/feelings across, i dont want to step too much into personal stuff nor spam people with something that ultimately doesnt interest me alot, im just saddened by it really
(EDIT: bc i forgot to add this on here again; this isnt as much of a problem as it might sound like here, just the main topic i wanted to talk about; why im so uninterested in it is MAINLY bc i dont trust them to write anything interesting/care about lore anymore after totk, im always on the more pessimistic side that thinks its most likely worse than id hope and i know even the past games arent perfect or super interestingly written, but now its much more just a general distrust, together with everything like the price ... im just much less hopeful and cant get excited until i see more of it, like im waiting for the game to get out and reveal that its just as much of a mess and money i regret spending- kind of fear)

sanji about zoro, episode 982
thinking about how when zoro wakes up in chapter 1052, the first thing he thinks about is indeed…
so he has his sake (while sanji watches him with a suspiciously fond look)
and then, in the face of wondering why he’s clean (and thus making him remember the time he’s been gone), he thinks about his conversation with sanji
and only then does he grab his swords to go reunite with sanji and proclaim the totally normal thought that He Came Back From Hell For Him
so in line with zoro’s rule of threes:
3 ‘s’s… sake, swords and sanji

thinking of how umemiya is so strong and so in control that he barely flinches at how you yank on his hair or scratch up his back or sink your teeth into his shoulder because the pleasure is just too much for your body to contain UGH and he’s just talking you through it all
I mean the man can handle Choji sinking his teeth in, his pain tolerance must be insane. It would be irritating how composed he can be if you weren't out of your mind with how he's rearranging your guts

More often than is comfortable I'll see a fandom post that's postured like OP is prepared to be mobbed with disagreement and harassment for their opinion, but then the actual meat of their post is a very straightforward, surface-level analysis of how an event or action in the plot supports a core theme of the story; or, even worse, it's just a literal assertion that a thing that happened in the text... happened in the text.
The sub fandoms and social circles whose existence these posts imply fill me with foreboding.
